Trump is really more of Elagabalus or maybe Caligula.

It's like we sped-ran past the "effective but tyrannical" ones a d straight into the comically corrupt.

Imagine how much Trump would be if syphilis was a thing.

Hey Elagabalus may have had problems but she was 16 and horny and maybe don’t put a horny 16 year old in charge of an empire.
